apparatus,

The liquid to be cooled descends fromone to another of the several platforms 12 on 1 to the lower platforms. During the descent of the liquid in the manner explained, air circulates freely through the openwork outer walls oi. the apparatus B into the compartments between the outer walls and flue in which the liquid descends, and the fiow of air is greatly accelerated through said compartments by a strong current of air passing into and through the flue 5 from the main apparatus A, due to the operation of the mechanical means provided to create a forced circulation through the said main When the liquid being cooled reaches the bottom of the auxiliary apparatus, it deposits in catch basins 13, and may be withdrawn from such catch basins for use, if its temperature has been sufiiciently lowered by passage through the auxiliary apparatus. 1 make provision, however, for the delivery of such liquid from the auxiliary apparatus to the main apparatus, in order that it may pass through the latter to have its temperature reduced to a greater degree, the means just referred to being pipes is leading downwardly from said catch basins to the liquid distributing structure within the main apparatus.

l claim The combination with a liquid cooling apparatusi including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplemental liquid cooling apparatus open to receive air under atmospher c pressure and through which the air forced into the first named apparatus is passed to draw atmospheric air into said-supplemental apparatus.

2. The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplemental liquid cooling apparatus surmounting the first named apparatus; the supplemental apparatus being open to receive air undcr atmospheric pressure and being in communication with the interior of the first named apparatus to receive air forced therethrough.

3. The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplemental liquid cooling apparatus surmounting the first named apparatus; the supplementalapparatus comprising a cooli oaopoe ing compartment open to the atmosphere, and a flue leading from the first named apparatus in communication with said cooling compartment.

' 4. The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of'air therethrough, of a supplemental li uid cooling apparatus surmounting the rst named apparatus; the supplemental apparatus comprising a cooling compartment having an openwork outer wall through which air at atmospheric pressure may enter, and a flue leading from the first named apparatus in communication with said cooling compartment.

'5. The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplementalliquid cooling apparatus surmounting the first namedapparatus; the supplemental apparatus comprising a cooling compartment having an openwork outer wall through which air under atmospheric pressure mayv enter, and a flue leading from the first named apparatus having a wall provided with a plurality of apertures permitting circulation of air" at different elevations from said compartment to said flue.

6. The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplemental liquid cooling apparatus surmounting the first named apparatus; the supplemental apparatus comprising acooling compartment having an openwork outer wall through which air under atmospheric pressure may enter,- and a flue leading from the first named apparatus having a wall provided with a plurality of apertures permitting circulation of air at different elevations from said compartment to said flue; the said flue wall being provided with deflectors overhanging the said apertures.

7 The combination with a liquid cooling apparatus including means for creating a forced circulation of air therethrough, of a supplemental liquid cooling apparatus surmounting thefirst named apparatus; the supplemental apparatus comprising a plurality of coolin com artments open to the atmosphere, an a no leading vertically from the first named apparatus into communication with all of said compartments.
